Have Fun: Be Fit! Been a while.

Well, even the most disciplined can fall behind. I'm guilty. It has been way too long since I posted, and frankly, I've let my exercise routine slip. As part of my work, I've been traveling to Shanghai, China about every 6 weeks for 7 to 12 days. When not in China, I have to go to my office in Los Angeles (about 6 hours from my home) for 3 days a week or so. I was doing great at maintaining an exercise routine until about 6 months ago when time changes and scheduling got the best of me. Now, I get to follow my own advice and get back to it.

At 52 years-old, I'm still in better shape than a lot of people my age. Considering the shape I'm in (or not in) that's pretty sad. At 30, I could push for 90 days and easily maintain that shape for 12 months or more. At 40 that started to change and at 50, I could push for 12 months and pretty easily maintain that shape for about 30 days. The older we get, the more important consistency is; the more important it is to maintain muscle density; and the more important to stay flexible.

I have a plan and I'll keep you posted.
